traveller rear door hinges

Post by 1mustard »

hi all how important is the correct location of the rear door hinges on traveller doors, both for the post and the door, mine are in a pile and i am not 100% sure what goes where, to be honest they look the same anyway, but i would like to be sure.
Two have the letter L on the back so i am assuming they go on the left (not rocket science i know!), any advice?
cheers all.

Are there not holes in the wood for them?? I dont think location is critical, but it would pay to make sure they are in roughly the right place.

The bottom hinges shouldn't be too hard to get in the right place due to the "triangular" plates that butt up against the rear pillar - these have the holes for the bolts to go through.
